hmm my box seems to be stuck on Technomate on lcd

no pic .etc

tried getting in mini root but still no luck

looks like its soft bricked???

any 1 know how to fix??
 
also m8, the boxes are blank when you receive them, have you flashed an image onto it at all yet? if not, follow the instructions posted in the link, theres also this video

i had a image flashed on it before

it was working

put it on standby and went out

came back and display say technomate

i have tried repeatedly tapping to get it into miniroot
still no luck

just disconnected box for now to power it down and will try it in a bit
 
Unplug any usb drives mate, see if that nakes a difference.
 
got nothing connected to it just power

still same thing???

is there anyway to flash it via rs232 port or somthing???
 
I suppose you could try using DreamUp mate.

[edit]

Scrap that idea mate, I just tried it and Dreamup doesn't recognise the box at all. :(

Maybe Technomate have some sort of serial flasher app.

im using 1st of june image

restart softcam did crash my box green screen
but a manual reboot sorted it

got channel list .etc on and cccam running with my line

but no the box seems dead
just says technomate on it

left it powered off for a while and then tried it, it went to starting.... and the pic came on tv starting..... then miniroot...... on lcd
then pic on tv starts to pixalate and go funny

so reboot box then stuck on technomate again

ive left it off again and will see if it boots up or if it pixalates i might get a vid of it off my fone

only thing hooked up is sat feed, power and hdmi
 
ok been snooping around the box with hyperterminal

and i was right the image is corrupted some how

says image: bad crc

will keep u posted on what i dig up next

tried dreamup and technomate control center = no joy

i can get the box to boot up in miniroot but it crashes and stays there it dont even attempt to read usb stick
and ip address dont come on

here is what i get in hyper terminal

ooo errrr!

That doesn't sound good mate.

You're not even getting an IP address to connect to miniroot?

I stil say there must be some software that'll get around this.
 
hmmm when its stuck on technomate on the lcd this is the read out:

could it be that i just got a dud unit???
 
try getting into the miniroot with everything disconnected m8, except the power lead
 
i cant get into mini root

at all going by that log the box cant boot into mini root

is there a way to flash it via serial port???

proper pissed as i have tried getting into mini root around 200time!!!
 
Saying that I can access the miniroot option, but despite flashing with the new 02.06 image I still get same issue.

You can flash your box with the minroot but once it reboots the box doesn't start up?

Have you tried an older image mate?
 
Thats right, i flashes but then doesnt boot up.

I havent tried another image mate, would you have a download link as I am having problems downloading from here
